新西兰股市在周二早盘几乎没有变化，在前一交易日小幅上涨后徘徊在13079点左右。通信和工业服务的进步几乎抵消了非能源矿产和医疗保健的损失。交易员在劳动力市场担忧的情况下权衡了美联储降息的前景，同时在新西兰总理克里斯托弗·卢克森批评新西兰联储的谨慎立场后评估了国内前景，尽管自去年8月以来借贷成本从5.5%逐步放缓。在华尔街，周一股市收盘下跌，投资者在英伟达盈利和美联储首选通胀指标公布之前获利回吐。在主要贸易伙伴中国，1月至7月的工业利润数据将于本周晚些时候公布，贸易壁垒、需求疲软和最近的恶劣天气给市场情绪蒙上了阴影。Genesis Energy（-2.1%）、T&G Global（-1.9%）和AFT Pharma（-1.5%）下跌，而Scott Tech（2.4%）、Vista Group（1.9%）和Mainfreight（1.8%）上涨。
New Zealand stocks were little changed in early Tuesday trade, hovering around 13,079 after a modest rise in the prior session. Advances in communications and industrial services nearly offset losses in non-energy minerals and healthcare. Traders weighed U.S. Fed rate cut prospects amid labor market concerns, while assessing the domestic outlook after Prime Minister Christopher Luxon criticized the RBNZ’s cautious stance—despite a gradual easing in borrowing costs from 5.5% since last August. On Wall Street, equities closed lower Monday as investors booked profits ahead of Nvidia’s earnings and the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge. In major trading partner China, January–July industrial profit data is due later this week, with sentiment clouded by trade barriers, soft demand, and recent adverse weather. Genesis Energy (-2.1%), T&G Global (-1.9%), and AFT Pharma (-1.5%) declined, while Scott Tech (2.4%), Vista Group (1.9%), and Mainfreight (1.8%) posted gains.
